The issue with FOP is really about the releases, not so much cvs.
Currently releases are coming from a branch. There is a release
happening soon that will work with 1.5b2 and current Batik cvs.

You don't really need to worry about it breaking functionality so much.
It is really about compatibility as far as running.
This 'feature' in the FOP releases is really a use at own risk at the
moment.

After would probably work better from my point of view and don't bother
duplicating methods if it would be ugly.
